episode Build at Your Own Pace cover

Build at Your Own Pace

In this episode, I talk about pace. What it feels like to think you’re behind. What it means to build without rushing. What it takes to stay steady when everyone else seems to be moving faster. As a Filipina living in Taiwan and working remotely as a Project Manager supporting U.S. corporations, I didn’t start with clarity, connections, or resources. I started with zero experience and a commitment to improve. In this episode, I share: What happened when I tried to find help but couldn’t afford mentorship How the pandemic tested my relationship before marriage Why I stopped explaining myself to everyone Why I stepped away from social media And how steady practice shaped my career If you feel behind, this conversation is for you. You’re not behind. You’re building. Build at your own pace.

Why Global Work Isn’t Just for “Tech People”

Global work is not reserved for programmers. In this episode of Beyond Borders: A Filipina’s Playbook, I break the stereotype that online work is only for “techy” people. As a Filipina living in Taiwan and working remotely as a Project Manager supporting U.S. corporations, I share how I started with zero technical background and why consistency, not talent, is what builds mastery. If you’ve ever thought: “I’m not technical enough.” “Freelancing is too complicated.” “I don’t even know my niche.” This episode is for you. I talk about: Why most global roles don’t require coding How clarity comes from movement, not overthinking Why it’s okay to say “I don’t know — yet” And how to handle discouragement from people closest to you You don’t need to know everything before you begin. You don’t need approval to grow. You just need to practice. Living overseas doesn’t limit your earning power. Your belief might.

episode Comparison Abroad & the Truth About Depending on Your Marriage cover

Comparison Abroad & the Truth About Depending on Your Marriage

Living overseas changes more than your location it changes how you see yourself. In this episode of Beyond Borders: A Filipina’s Playbook, I talk about why comparison feels heavier when you’re building a life in another country, especially as a Filipina married to a Taiwanese husband. From cultural adjustment to emotional expectations inside marriage, I explore how relying too heavily on a partner for stability can slowly affect confidence, identity, and personal growth. This conversation was inspired by a real story shared with me a Filipina wife whose marriage ended not because of cheating, but because of a gradual shift in attitude and emotional dynamics. It made me reflect deeply on what healthy dependence actually looks like. According to Taiwan’s Ministry of the Interior, the country records over 50,000 divorces annually, with roughly 1% of married couples divorcing each year. Many of these cases are linked not to scandal, but to long-term misalignment and emotional distance. Living abroad already requires adjustment. Losing yourself in the process should not be part of the cost. If you’ve ever: Compared your marriage to others Felt pressure to constantly adapt Questioned your emotional stability overseas Or wondered how to build strength without weakening your relationship This episode is for you. Marriage can be meaningful. But your foundation must be yours.

episode You Don’t Need to Know Everything to Begin Learning cover

You Don’t Need to Know Everything to Begin Learning

I didn’t start knowing what I was doing. When I began working online, I didn’t even know how to send a proper work email. I had no experience, no right tools, and no clear blueprint of what I was doing just a borrowed headset, a computer that sounded like a fishing boat, and the guts to start anyway. In this episode, I share what it really looked like to learn while doing: sending tailored applications late at night, getting rejected almost daily, attending multiple interviews a day, dealing with blurry webcams, roosters and barking dogs during calls, and screens going black in the middle of meetings. This episode is about starting before you have all the answers, learning through real work, and understanding that not knowing everything doesn’t mean you’re not capable it simply means you’re at the beginning. I talk about: * How I learned by doing instead of waiting * Why rejection helped me narrow my direction * What discipline and focus looked like in real life * How mentorship, mindset, faith, and consistency shaped my growth If you’ve been waiting to feel “ready” before you begin, this episode is for you. You don’t need to know everything to begin learning. You just need to start.

episode What “working from home” really looks like for me cover

What “working from home” really looks like for me

Working from home is often shown online as something easy and flexible. But real life looks very different. In this first episode of Beyond Borders A Filipina’s Playbook, I share my real experience of working from home while living in Taiwan, married to a Taiwanese, and raising a child. I talk about waking up at 2 a.m. for work, shifting between work and motherhood, and managing a home as a foreign wife. I share how language barriers, cultural differences, and marriage challenges shaped my journey, especially during the early years when I felt misunderstood and invisible. This episode is not about quick success. It is about starting with very little, feeling dependent before finding stability, and slowly building confidence and security over time while working with US based clients. This podcast is for foreign wives living in Taiwan, mothers who want to earn from home, and women who feel stuck but know there must be more possibilities. I chose podcasting because our minds are tired of screens. You can listen while doing chores, resting, or taking care of your child. No pressure, no teaching, just a real conversation. Your situation is not permanent. Let us discover life beyond borders together.
